中国农村最低生活保障的现状、问题及其成因

经过近几年的发展，中国在推行农村最低生活保障制度上已取得了一定成果，但无论在制度建设还是在实践环节都还存在诸多问题，该文对这些问题的成因进行了分析。     

刑事政策与刑法适用

广义刑事政策并不限于直接以防止犯罪为目的的刑罚制度,还包括间接的与预防犯罪相关的各种社会政策,区分为刑事惩罚政策和社会预防政策两项基本内容.刑事政策有很强的实践性、具体性和精确性,表现为一种具体的公共决策;作为一个开放性的有机整体,刑事政策是一个预防和控制犯罪的系统,因此,应具备一体化思想.     

我国行业利益集团对规制政策制定过程的影响

规制政策本质上具有对公民和企业的权利进行分配或再分配的特点,中国国际快递委员会通过重点运用游说策略,综合利用智库、媒体等渠道,对快递业的规制政策制定施加了影响,有力地抵制了国家邮政局和邮政企业“政企同盟”的政策意图。因此,如何在今后的利益集团博弈中构筑一个各方充分参与的制度性平台,将成为今后政治体制改革的重要课题。

论群体性治安事件的生成与消解

消除与化解群体性治安事件应从揭示其萌生、发展的机理着手。群体性治安事件的生成离不开社会矛盾的积聚、违规群体的形成和情境因素的催化这三个要件。去除全部或部分的要件,就切断了事件萌发的生成链,这也应是消解群体性治安事件的有效途径。     

From paradigm shift to retooling: the foundation and maintenance of the AKP

ABSTRACT

This article examines the foundation of the Justice and Development Party (Adalet ve Kalk?nma Partisi-AKP) after a paradigm shift and its maintenance through retooling, which involves strategic positionings and tactical manoeuvres within its new paradigm. The positionings and manoeuvres that the party took vis-à-vis states of exception have been imperative for its survival in government. The main argument of the article is that the AKP retooled itself in the face of crises rather than going through a paradigmatic change, that is to say, resorting back to the Islamism of the party elite’s origins, in Kuhnian terms. Through the fluidity of its discourse and the unrivalled charisma of its leader, the AKP has -multiple times- changed the center of gravity of its discourse and policies without having to disarticulate its founding political imaginary. Neither its recently increased nationalism nor authoritarianism was the result of an ideological orientation, just like the democratic reforms in its initial years. They were mostly by-products of survival efforts at power positioning, through retooling.     

Ambivalence About Equality in the United States or, Did Tocqueville Get it Wrong and Why Does that Matter?

Alexis de Tocqueville believed that “democratic peoples’... passion for equality is ardent, insatiable, eternal, and invincible.” This article examines whether and under what conditions residents of the United States demonstrate such a commitment to equality. I show that at many points in history, Americans have indeed chosen to move toward greater justice and less oppression; however, there are clear limits to their passion for equality. White Americans endorse less social, political, and economic equality than do African Americans, but even the latter often resist equality for groups that they perceive to be threats, or for behaviors that threaten strong social or moral norms. The article discusses implications for political activists of these patterns of support for and resistance to greater equality, and suggests strategies for overcoming oppression and promoting justice.
